I’m disputing that it’s anyone’s responsibility except their own to find a solution to it. Work harder, earn more, or make do with less - they chose to take on two 18 year financial commitments and now are complaining that despite the bevy

People drive into deep water all the time - some states specifically have laws making them financially liable for the cost of rescue because it’s such a stupid thing to do. But still, they do it.

It’s wild because of how shockingly easy basic food photography is. Make a plate, set it in front of a window, snap a picture. I think AI is amazing, but equally amazing is people’s laziness and lack of taste when it comes to applying it.

How well is Europe’s unity through culture playing out when you’re trying to bridge Norway and Somalia, rather than Portugal and Spain or Denmark and the Netherlands? Hell, looking back a decade or two, the PIIGs would’ve been a bit at odds

Presumably the family of 4 isn't a family of 4 from the 1950s. Supporting a family of 4 on $50K or less hasn't been a thing for at a decade, so they were clearly in control of the variables at the relevant point in time. "Sho

If you're implying abortion (or Swift's proposal) is the only option for birth control, you're very wrong. Are there any roadblocks to condoms or contraceptives in any state in America? I'm not aware of one.

Vaccination has a very reasonable public health argument, even ignoring the fact that it has been massively eroded, and comparing vaccination to social media is disingenuous. If Timmy is on Instagram, John’s health isn’t at risk. If Timmy c

Sure sounds like they can’t afford a family of 4 on that income. They have control over both variables in that situation.

Why are you allowed to dictate how others raise their children? They don’t get a say in your kids diet or religion or choice of sport.

Very different processes. Even setting up a new CPU design in a fab that already makes CPU dies is months of validation, for context.

That's an erosion of privacy where you have (had?) an expectation of privacy. In the US, you could always be recorded in public, excluding narrow exceptions for things like voyeurism or harassment.

If we’re playing what-if, consider the contributions those spy satellites made to keep the Cold War cold and provide for decades of Pax Americana and a security umbrella over Europe that they didn’t have to pay for.

So to my original point, the Flock camera does not violate any rights. Even the system aggregating the data, like Google or your cell provider, doesn’t violate any rights. It’s only the government searching that database without a warrant t

Yes, and all this ties nicely to Flock: Google/Flock can collect the data - constitutional. Google/Flock can sell the data - constitutional. There’s the potential for searching the database to require a warrant, but the cameras

“Why can't we expect some level of privacy in a public place?” Because it’s a public place. We already have laws covering things like harassment, voyeurism, etc; so existing legal conduct in a public place should remain legal.

Can you name the specific right? For the first, assumably you think you can’t be observed coming or going from a riot? That’s not true. For the fourth, a Flock camera existing is not inherently a search, just like how a database of cell rec

Good thing the courts are already upholding the constitutionality of Flock in US v Jackson and Schmidt v. City of Norfolk. If it reaches the SC, I think it'd be easy to see a limit similar to Carpenter on scope and duration of the sear

Do you think George parking his horse/car in a public parking lot outside a brothel should confer an expectation of privacy? Can a bank or ATM miles away have a security camera, just on the off-chance that George stops to withdraw cash
